Oh no, here it comes again
Can't remember when we came so close to love before
Hold on good things never last
Nothing's in the past
It always seems to come again
Again and again
Again and again, again

Cry out to legions of the brave
Time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out protect us of the realm
Captians at the helm
And sail across the sea of lights

Circles and rings, dragons and kings
Weaving a charm and a spell
Blessed by the night, holy and right
Called by the toll of the bell

Bloody angels fast descending
Moving on a never bending light
Phantom figures free forever
Out of shadows shinning ever bright
Neon knights, neon knights, all right
Neon knights, neon knights
Neon knights, neon knights

    Dio underrated, Ozzy overrated. This is Sab's #2 song after only Paranoid.

    I Like Dio better then Ozzy to tell the Truth. To me Ozzy is just a sell now. After what happned at Ozzfest 2005 just proves that his wife runs his carrer. Metallic Dude check out holy diver and read this comment by this guy on the second page I think it's funny.

    I wonder if Robert Jordan was inspired by this song? The song's description of time and its references of a dragon, a weave and the Shadow reminds me of the Wheel of Time books.

    the comment about Dio's songs meaning nothing is ABSURD - this song is the punch to Heaven & Hell - Dio's whole message and especially in this song is that we are neither and we are both - we are evil and we are divine - we are heaven and we are hell - it's a circle - a ring - it's INFINITE - it is the question of the egg and the chicken... nothings in the past - it comes again and again and again... every stanza in the song suggest both entities: legions of the brave - jackals of the streets protectors of the realm - acroos the sea of lights (river styx to hell) blessed by the night - toll of the bell bloodied angels fast descending - all in one line - maybe the greatest lyric ever written this is about the infinite question - and Dio is replying that we are both - Dio was a million times more creative than Ozzy could have dreamed of being - the Heaven & Hell tour was a work of GENUIS - what Dio did was come in with just part of Heaven & Hell inbetween every couple of songs - and he would remind us that it "goes on and on and on and on and on... " every couple of songs he would do a single line or stanza of Heaven & Hell and then "it goes on and on" - until finally they closed with the entire song - sheer GENUIS - Dio is without doubt one of thee greatest metal writers of all time -

    Okay I got to step in and tell you all the meaning of the song now that RJD is no longer with us, here it is. we humans fight the same war over and over. this time the humans almost reached perfection. Love but good things never last so we are at it again the world has been corrupted my the dragons and kings Dragons being off planet and Kings being world government. these entities have placed propaganda and media manipulation on the population. circles and rings are symbols made to manipulate the humans to just be shadows inslaved. so , the world out of control a bell is rung and angels from the heavens come down to save them the angels in the same battle above hence the bloodied angles. the phantom figures are the human no longer under mind control are free to shine ever bright ./ the Angles are depicted on the cover since they are human and hevenly. the last verse he a cheer for the Neon Knights. feel free to comment but I am right on this one

Zombie
Cranberries, The
"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference. "Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence caused such silence Who are we mistaken - Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over" Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead. "But you see it's not me It's not my family" References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.

Me and Johnny
Matt Paxton
Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
